CROSS-REFERENCE TO RELATED APPLICATION
[0001] This application claims benefit of priority from Japanese application number JP2009-100756 filed Apr. 17, 2009; the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.TECHNICAL FIELD
[0002] The present invention relates to a PCI Express device and in particular to a processing circuit of transaction layer packets (TLP).BACKGROUND ART
[0003] A PCI Express (registered trademark) bus is a high-speed serial interface employing point-to-point connection that has been developed in recent years for transferring data in computer systems and other electronic devices; the occupied area of the substrate of the bus is less than in the case of conventional parallel transfer, making possible further miniaturisation, and application of this technique in many fields is being studied.
[0004] The details of the standard have been laid down as the PCI Express Base Specification by the PCI-SIG (Peripheral Component Interconnect-Special Interest Group), w...
